    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate dynamically forming clusters in a wireless communication environment. A set of non-overlapping clusters can be formed dynamically over time and in a distributed manner. Each of the clusters can include a set of base stations and a set of mobile devices. The clusters can be yielded based upon a set of local strategies selected by base stations across the network converged upon through message passing. For example, each base station can select a particular local strategy as a function of time based upon network-wide utility estimates respectively conditioned upon implementation of the particular local strategy and disparate possible local strategies that can cover the corresponding base station. Moreover, operation within each of the clusters can be coordinated.

    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that provide techniques for performing adjustments for delta-based power control and interference management in a wireless communication system. A terminal can utilize one or more delta-based power control techniques described herein upon engaging in a reverse link transmission after a predetermined period of silence or after receiving indications of interference from neighboring access points. A delta value can be computed through open-loop projection, based on which transmission resources such as bandwidth and/or transmit power can be increased or decreased to manage interference caused by the terminal. A delta value, other feedback from the terminal, and/or indications of interference caused by the terminal can also be communicated as feedback to a serving access point to allow the access point to assign transmission resources for the terminal.

    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described herein that facilitate interference measurement and reporting in a network multiple-in-multiple-out (N-MIMO) communication system. As described herein, a network device can measure and report interference corresponding to network nodes outside a designated set of nodes that can cooperatively serve the device. Respective interference reports can additionally identify dominant interfering nodes, correlation between transmit antennas of respective nodes, or the like. Subsequently, respective interference reports can be combined with per-node channel information to manage coordination and scheduling across respective network nodes. As further described herein, interference from a network node can be measured by observing reference and/or synchronization signals from the network node. To aid such observation, respective non-interfering network nodes can define null pilot intervals in which transmission is silenced or otherwise reduced. As additionally described herein, loading information broadcasted by respective interfering network nodes can be identified and utilized in connection with interference calculation.

    摘要: Techniques for supporting broadcast/multiple transmission to multiple terminals with feedback and rate adaptation are described. In an aspect, a combination of HARQ and at least one shared feedback channel may be used to support broadcast/multicast transmission. In one design, a base station may send at least one transmission of a packet to multiple terminals, one transmission at a time. The base station may receive feedback information (e.g., NAK) for the packet from the terminals on the shared feedback channel(s). The base station may determine whether to terminate the packet early and/or may select at least one transmission parameter for another packet based on the feedback information for the packet. In another aspect, a transport format for a broadcast/multicast transmission may be selected based on CQI information from terminals receiving the transmission. The terminals may send CQI information at a slow rate and/or only certain terminals may send CQI information.

    摘要: Techniques for allocating and mapping resources in a wireless communication system are described. The system may use hop-ports to facilitate allocation and use of subcarriers. In one aspect, the hop-ports may be partitioned into multiple subzones, with each subzone including a configurable number of hop-ports. The hop-ports within each subzone may be permuted or shuffled based on a permutation function. After permutation, the hop-ports in all subzones may be mapped to the subcarriers based on local or global hopping. In another aspect, a set of hop-ports may be mapped to a set of subcarriers. A hop-port may be mapped to an unavailable subcarrier and may then be remapped to another available subcarrier. In yet another aspect, a set of hop-ports may be mapped to a set of subcarriers distributed (e.g., evenly) across all subcarriers but avoiding subcarriers in a reserved zone.

    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that provide half-duplex communication in a frequency division duplex (FDD) system. Communications in an FDD system may be divided into half-duplex interlaces, wherein a terminal may receive at one time period and transmit at another time period. An access network in an FDD system may then utilize half-duplex communication to communicate with an access terminal that is not capable of transmitting and receiving simultaneously by using a half-duplex interlace. Further, an access network may also utilize full-duplex communication to communicate with an access terminal that is capable of transmitting and receiving simultaneously.

    摘要: A communication system (100) transmits data packets from a sender (120A) to a receiver (130A) using hybrid automatic repeat request processes. The sender redundantly encodes each packet, divides the packet into subpackets, and sends the subpackets to the receiver in a time-interlaced manner. When the receiver returns a positive acknowledgement of a subpacket using an acknowledgement channel, the sender terminates transmission of the subpackets. The sender interprets the signals on the acknowledgement channel using a metric resulting from correlation of the signals with positive and negative acknowledgement symbols. The sender interprets low correlation of the acknowledgement channel signal with both positive and negative acknowledgement symbols as a preamble miss, and terminates transmission of the subpackets. After termination, the packet may be rescheduled for transmission. Early termination of packet transmission after a preamble miss improves bandwidth utilization and decreases latency of the packet with the missed preamble.

    摘要翻译: 通信系统(100)使用混合自动重复请求处理将数据分组从发送方(120A)发送到接收方(130A)。 发送方对每个数据包进行冗余编码,将数据包划分为子数据包,并以时间间隔方式将子数据包发送给接收方。 当接收方使用确认信道返回子包的肯定确认时,发送方终止子数据包的传输。 发送者使用由信号与正和负确认符号的相关产生的度量来确认确认信道上的信号。 发送方解释确认信道信号与正和负确认符号的低相关性作为前导码缺失,并终止子分组的传输。 终止之后,可以重新安排分组以进行传输。 前导码丢失后的数据包传输的提前终止提高了带宽利用率并降低了丢失前导码的数据包的等待时间。
